Rick Sadler

The boss, who was literally born in his family's funeral home near Pittsburgh. Married three times, Rick is a recovering workaholic who desperately wants to retire to a peaceful life away from the constant of dead bodies. But Rick lost all his money in the last market crash. Rick's demanding ways and wry humor generate trouble among the staff as he sweats the bottom line and tries to keep everyone on their toes.

I'm sure he does handle the finances, etc., but all they have shown of him is riding the backs of his employees (especially Chuck). When he was yelling at John to answer the phone I found myself yelling back at the TV "answer it yourself". Then when he said he doesn't like to deal with the families I found myself wondering why he was in this business. If he didn't have Shonna around I think he would be out of business.

I knew there was something about Rick that rubbed me the wrong way. Apparently he's a convicted con man

Beautiful find DocDon! I honestly didn't feel right about him either. Strange that he would STILL have that fine "pending" and leaving his license in limbo, while at the same time signing up for a national reality show.

Maybe he took care of it...but even if he did, it doesn't help me in deciding whether I "like" the show or not. More like HINDERS.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" -- Steve Parker
